I made a D&J quilt for the gal that works for me when she had her first grandbaby. After all, every grandma needs a quilt at her house. I used the panel with the pic and used other fabrics and made like a row quilt with squares, pinwheels, etc. Don't have a pic but it turned out very cute.

At one time I used to collect Dick and Jane fabrics but used up all my stash.
Hobby Lobby has it sometimes, but it's like a needle in a haystack and I'm sure Hancock of Paducahs may have some too, but not the older prints.
Thanks!

I love D&J fabrics, too. I learned to read, like so many others my age, from the books. Later, when my granddaughter was struggling to learn to read, I tutored her using a reprint of a D&J that I bought at school. She loves the fabric, too, and picked out some on our last trip to the LQS. I just smiled and tossed it in with the other stuff. She'll play with it one afternoon, no doubt, when she comes for a weekend. She's 12, so I'm thrilled with anything at my house that piques her interest. She practically lived here on weekends, now she comes only when there's nothing better going on. Typical pre-teen angst!
